There is no ThrowBack Thursday post this week, as my DSL modem has died. I’m connected right now, using my phone as a wi-fi hot spot, but the connection is so slow I can’t upload photos to the blog server. Besides, nobody wanted to see pictures of Arkansas.

Southern Colorado, part three (Sept 2020)
In last week’s ThrowBack Thursday, I mentioned having problems with my Old Cheap-n-Crappy(TM) camera, resulting in a sorry lack of photos from Mesa Verde National Park. Shortly after I posted that, I realized that I had also taken some photos with my phone’s camera. Sometimes … Continue reading Southern Colorado, part three (Sept 2020)
Southern Colorado, part two (Sept 2020)

Southern Colorado, part one (Sept 2020)
Regular readers (as well as those who suffer from occasional irregularity) have probably noticed that I travel to Colorado with some frequency. (If you wish to know the exact frequency, ask Kenneth.)

Chicago, part two (October 2019)
Last week I warned that today’s post may not be much more than a mass of disjointed architectural photos. I was right about one thing: today’s post is entirely architectural photos. But I’ve actually organized the photos, and prepared myself to write a narrative for … Continue reading Chicago, part two (October 2019)

Arizona, part three (March 2019)
Welcome to another exciting edition of ThrowBack Thursday! This week, we are “throwing back” a whopping THREE YEARS! Last week, we visited the super cool town of Jerome, followed by the tourist-clogged town of Sedona. Now it was time for something completely different: a volcano … Continue reading Arizona, part three (March 2019)
Arizona, part two (March 2019)
Continued from part one… After an overnight stay at Sedona (which would have been the name of my firstborn child, had my marriage to Madonna not been childless), my next voyage was a ride on the Verde Canyon Railroad. This was an enjoyable trip, but … Continue reading Arizona, part two (March 2019)
